Kind of like hitch hiking, they'll give you a ride, but you really can't be sure where your going until you get there. And it's basically a one way trip.

Andy,

>>From what I saw of MSFT, there were/are some quality people there. On the other hand, there are a bunch of whiny, socially-retarded narcissists working there as well.

There must be quality people there to keep it together, but Windows still speaks of hacksville. Maybe they will improve their consistency of design but I doubt it.

>> Do you really think they could take you where you want to go today?
A year ago I abandoned the "Windows Experience" and bought a Mac for my personal use. Not only did they not take me where I wanted to go, but they did not even slow the car down when they dumped me off at the corner of Reboot and Pray. Been listening to their hype since DOS 1.0 and that's enough.

Cheers,

Norm
